People's stories inspire me to create, paint and dance.

Haruka Ashida Ostley is a multidisciplinary artist (painter/ muralist/ mosaic artist/ performer ) who hails from Japan. She grew up living across four different continents with her family. After graduating from Savannah College of Art and Design with B.F.A in painting, she then moved to New York City where she trained at Stella Adler Studio of Acting. She thrills to work with people with different backgrounds, crossing over different mediums across the world. Recently, she moved back to the U.S.A from Hong Kong, with her husband and son, where she worked as an Artist-in-Residence. While she was there, she enjoyed working with local professionals, as well as students from age two to college graduates.

When stories and energies fill her heart, she responds with her brush, color, body, and soul.
